REGISTER NOW: CNY Fundamentals of Continual Improvement, Registration Deadline: November 22, 2010

The Community Health Foundation of Western & Central New York is pleased to sponsor a 2-day workshop for health and human service providers in Central New York on quality improvement:

FUNDAMENTALS OF CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT: Converting Knowledge into Action for Improvement
(Part of a series of quality improvement training and capacity building programs for health and human services providers in Central New York)

Dates: Monday, November 29th, 9:00AM - 4:30PM and
Tuesday, November 30th, 9:00AM - 3:00PM


Location: Doubletree Hotel Syracuse
6301 State Route 298
East Syracuse, NY 13057

Workshop Overview: The aim of the workshop is to build improvement capacity and practical know-how for health and human service providers working in a variety of settings. The workshop is organized as action learning, so participants will work on a project they bring with them from their own organizations. The workshop will cover practical applications of the robust Model for Improvement (API, 1996). Participants will learn how to construct an aim or purpose statement and then scale an improvement project for results. They will develop capacity in how to measure results to understand whether and how much improvement they achieve and, finally, how to design, conduct and evaluate changes.

Eligibility: The workshop is open to managers, staff and practitioners from health and human services providers in the CNY counties served by the Community Health Foundation; Cayuga, Cortland, Herkimer, Madison, Oneida, Onondaga, Oswego and Tompkins. We encourage you to identify a group from your organization who will attend the workshop as a team and work on an improvement project together.

Workshop Registration: Registrations will be accepted on a first come, first served basis. Effort will be made to accommodate up to five participants from each organization. Registration forms (attached) will need to be signed by all workshop participants and the Executive Director (or the equivalent) to demonstrate the organization’s commitment to implementing quality improvement. There will be no charge for this workshop.

Deadline for registration is Monday,
November 22nd at 5:00pm.
Fax your completed registration form to 716/852-3131.
